Further comment on aring:

Having asciidiaresis and degree on aring is perhaps redundant as these
already exists as diaresis and altgr+shift+0. But I admit that having a
nodeadkeys keymap with really no dead keys is perhaps most intuitive.
But at the same time sometimes (but not very often) there is needs to
type a character in another latin language such as German so I am not
sure.. How have things been historically when running with "nodeadkeys"?

Apart from really beeing a nodeadkeys keymap I have found no flaws in
your patch except for possibly key <AB10> which still has dead_belowdot
on AltGR (Not that I have a clue what a non-dead dead_belowdot would
be...)

Henrik
